JT, great haul....some of the best R&B and soul!!!

It’s bittersweet sometimes seeing these kinds of videos of guys buying records that they don’t even know what they are. There is so much heat in there. Guys like myself have been looking for 20 plus years just to see guys come along now that vinyl is hip and find these stashes. Good for you. There’s more in those boxes than you know.

Wow. I can feel your excitement coming across this as you show the albums in this video. Wonderful these lps have found their way to a great appreciative home! Thanks for sharing this amazing serendipitous haul.

Dude! You are one of the luckiest guys I know. I love 60s and early 70s soul / R&B. It was so influential in my life.

Hi JT. A good job-lot from the chap who spoke to you at the thrift store. It will be fun to dip into the ones you don't know and maybe be pleasantly surprised ... The last LP I bought at a charity shop was by Rose Royce - the one with 'Love Don't Live Here Anymore' ... I'd be more than happy to have picked up the Bobbi Humphrey LPs, Captain Sky (for the cover), The Wild Angels soundtrack, the Byrds, Nils Lofgren, the Rufus LPs, Isaac Hayes, Harold Melvin and Weather Report.

Hey, JT! We know where the party's gonna be at! Stellar vinyl haul!😊!!!

It is fun to see all those records! Many of the R&B records remind me of the roller skating rink. I ❤ Daryl Hall and John Oates. The Michael Jackson, Off The Wall was one of my favorites when I was 10 years old. It is more sentimental than Thriller for some reason. Seeing him at age 21 on the cover is how I like to remember him.

Great score my friend. Some fantastic records in there!

Amazing finds, great albums all around. The highlight for me is the William DeVaughan record, be thankful for what you got. Such a great album. Thanks for the video

Wow, wow, and wow!!! I would love to score a collection like that!! Enjoy!!

Love the Soul/R&B❤❤

Awesome haul! I've had the "Wild Angels" on the wall in my shop for years. The movie is a crack up 60's biker flick.

Smooth Jazz is sadly underrated. I love the Bob James, Lee Ritenour, Fattburger acquisitions. As I get a bit older, I seem to be drawn to smooth instrumental tunes that enhance my meditative/introspective statesof mind. Thanks JT! I love your Channel and always look forward to catching your shares. Take care. Paul from Texas!

I don't know where to start. What a haul; one for the books. There are so many great titles in those boxes. I bought the reissue of Fancy Dancer; it's a great album. I just can't believe the condition of those records. Change is a great band. Brother Rick is from Buffalo!! Nice copy of Off The Wall. Willie Hutch is an underrated player. Incredible Hancock titles. That's one of the few essential Bob James albums you need to own. 80's R&B flashback is in full effect! That's possibly my favorite Hall and Oats album. Great score and I loved the backstory!!

So many great records, awesome score

"10 Percent" was the first commercially disco single purchasable.

Hi JT!!! that was an awesome vinyl haul..... 160 record added to the collection, that a new record. I'm not big into Soul, R&B or Funk but i recognize some big names in those boxes, btw you will be spending a lot of time listening to all of them and be needing some extra space or a bigger house!! cheers and be well

Put on your dancin shoes JT! I have some of those. Rufus Chaka, RLaws. BJames JLorber EWF. That Pressure Sensitive is fantastic. Some good jems in the lot. Happy listening 🎶. Greg

Wow, Wow, Wow. Probably $1000 worth of records. The great thing is you can preview a lot of records that you would otherwise pass up and find some real gems.

You must be living right JT! Love that album by The System. "Don't Disturb This Groove" has to be one of the grooviest R&B/Techno-Funk tracks of the 80's. I wore that cassette out in college! Me'Shell Ndegeocello also did a beautiful cover of it back in '18. Check it out too if you're musically curious.

Sly Stone said it best, "DANCE TO THE MUSIC". Excellent scores for sure JT. Thanks for sharing.

I have about evey bob james album between 1974 to 1986,i like his music!!

I have the Steve Goodman essential on mofi 2 cd fat box. Thanks for sharing. Have a good one.

Hey JT amazing haul! Big fan of Herbie Hancock you’ll have an absolute blast playing through all those my friend - happy days!

Ohh that ritchie family song is a tune!!!

It's scores like that which make all the fruitless searches worthwhile. Must admit very little in my wheelhouse there and I only knew a few of the artists or albums. Very impressed with your knowledge and they will clearly give you joy JT. They looked to be in great shape too. Enjoy! cheers Dale

JT, that’s killer about going to overpriced thrift store lead to another fabulous collection. There is a lot of this soul /R&B that I don’t know. Peace ☮️ Namaste 🙏 the Zonkman

Great bunch of records. One of a real collectors favorite things to hear is "I've got a box of records that I want to get rid of", at least I love to hear that. Some great titles in there, nice Herbie Hancock and some great funk bands. MFSB (Mother Father Sister Brother) is a fun funk/jazz band that had quite an influential hit (pre-disco) called "The Sound of Philadelphia". They actually weren't a family but were a collection of several session musicians. I remember loving that song back in the day and have had a few of their albums which I really enjoyed back then. You've got a lot of listening to do, for sure. Excellent score!

Stevie Wonder wrote 2 songs on that Minnie Ripperton Album.

Fantastic job my man, I collect vinyl as well for the past 45 years.

Just wowww A LOT OF GREAT 80'S rnb records Sir... And I don't know this artist.. KASHIF!!!!!!

Great purchases. I personally this summer bought 300 or so R&B for a C Note. Most of it was in great shape Never turn down good deals. Made an offer for some records the other day, got turned down. Just couldn’t Justify buying all for more and she wouldn’t break out what I just wanted. Oh well.

Hey Jt, that Goodman comp is great. I got mine for a buck or two. What a fantastic collection and oh so minty. Lots of artists I’m not familiar with. Simply amazing my friend. Must have been a great price if it was a case of a seller saying it’s all or nothing. Cheers.

MFSB were the studio band for Philadelphia International Records. They played on all of the big Philly Soul hits.

That is the most hype stickers I’ve ever seen, congrats on all those Bob James and Herbie albums there is a lot of funky 🔥in those boxes

Oh wow!!! You struck gold! Fattburger I use to work with percussionist Tommy Aros' father from 1988-1996.

Hi JT. That’s some score! There’s a lot of enjoyment in those boxes. The Bobbie Humphrey albums, the William De Vaughan, and the Patrice Rushen records would be first on the deck for me. Cheers!

..yes you’ve Definitely been busy!! I don’t know where to begin with this lot, but there’s about 20 albums I’d love to sit down & listen to straight away. Bob James ‘One’ is his best, the track ‘Nautilus’ is one of the most sampled tracks ever , after James Brown’s ‘Funky Drummer’ & The Winstons ‘Amen Brother’ I never ‘Nautilus’ over here.

Great price on those three boxes. Most of these are so far away from my knowledge base. I have that Hall and Oates and Off the Wall, and that's it!

Amazing haul. I think that is the best Hall & Oates. Great Earth, Wind & Fire pickups. The Main Ingredient had the hit "Everybody Plays The Fool" and MFSB had the hit TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia). I picked up a Bobbi Humphrey a while back. You've got a lot of listening on the horizon.

JT, I love Deodato! Favorite albums are Prelude, Whirlwind’s, and Live at the Felt Forum NYC

That’s a nice find JT. I’m not a smooth jazz or smooth R&B guy, but I do like some 70’s funk!

Interesting picks! I bet that Jacksons record is fun! I can vouch for the Double Exposure LP. Great stuff. You could obviously make some serious dough off that box. Congrats. Helluva find, JT!😁

What a score! Man that Teddy Pendergrass was clean. They all were. Enjoy J.T.!

i also have that deodat,John Klemmer and Kenny G albums you showed, ,right on J T. also That Jeff Lorber and One of those Patric Rushen records.

that's jennifer holisay album,a masterpiece produced by maurice white from earth wind & fire

Both Ronnie and Hubert Laws are good musicians

MFSB was the house and orchestration for Philadelphia International records in the 70's. It's an acronym that stands for Mother Father Sister Brother or at least that's the clean version of it. The dirty version also begins with mother. I went to Salvation army and found a similar cache and there wasn't a spot on any of it. Kashif wrote for Whitney, Melba, and Evelyn.

You have such a broad range of musical taste JT. You know much more about a lot of these groups then I ever will. Do you trade in your doubles or do you keep both copies?

Is early Hall & Oates really considered "Funk/Soul"? I always considered their 80s stuff "Pop/Rock," but I have a couple of older albums of theirs on vinyl such as BIGGER THAN THE BOTH OF US, and I always kept it in "Oldies/Easy Listening."

nice Bobby Humphrey, Hall and Oates, George Clinton pop goes the captain , Rick James Stone city band that's a good price 60 cents each for 160 records at 100.00 bucks if the records in your eyes are 3.5 stars or better that's a good deal Rose Royce is that the album that has car wash on it? nice Donna Summer nice Saturday Night Fever I like the R rated version better, I have that record on vinyl , the 2nd Commodres album that you flipped by I have that album it's my brothers old record, questions 1. do you think for today's time cassette tapes being sold at the Mall for anywhere from 13.99 to 19.99 is expensive tapes like Dirty dancin no big groups from the 80's I think there trying to sell a rap tape these look like newer albums other than Dirty Dancin in todays money do you think that's expensive? 2. Tavarse is that the same album that has heaven missing angel? 3. is that the same Lionel Ritchie that has his hits from MTV or a different album? 4. I forgot one question for the week watching anybody's videos have you seen anybody showing a favorite album feel free to list as many as you want? my answer in Roberts whats on my turn table's contest I saw jacob holiding Def Leppard Pyromania can't think of the other one.

omg you don't know Kashif and Angela Bofil !!!!!

Hi, saw some records I like. would you like to sell me some? I’m really into this music

For sale?

Great haul but your knowledge is so limited.
